Sunny's Easy Mushroom, Peas and Pasta with 1-2-3 Alfredo Sauce image

Provided by Sunny Anderson

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons olive oil
4 fresh sage leaves
Kosher salt and ground black pepper
1 pound mixed wild mushrooms, sliced
1 pound fresh fettuccine
1 cup frozen peas (no need to defrost)
1 cup chicken stock
1 clove garlic, grated on a rasp
3 cups grated Pecorino Romano cheese
2 cups heavy cream

Steps:

  • For the pasta: In a large pan with sides and a lid, add the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sage and fry until just crisp, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate and season with a tiny pinch of salt.
  • Add the mushrooms to the pan and cook, stirring, until wilted and darkened, 5 to 8 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Add the pasta, peas and chicken stock. Cook, stirring and tossing, until all the liquid is absorbed, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • For the 1-2-3 alfredo sauce: Add the garlic to the pan and toss, then add the cheese and heavy cream. Stir to coat everything, then cover and reduce the heat to low. Cook, covered, until the sauce has combined and thickened slightly, about 8 minutes.
  • Top each portion with a fried sage leaf.

Categories     side-dish

Time 25m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Kosher salt
1 pound fusilli con buco pasta, such as Rustichella d'Abruzzo or Setaro
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 clove garlic, smashed
2 1/2 cups freshly grated Parmesan, plus more for serving
1 cup mascarpone, at room temperature
2 teaspoons grated lemon zest (from 1 large lemon)
1 1/2 cups frozen peas, thawed
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon pink peppercorns, ground

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook until just short of al dente, 10 or 11 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat a large straight-sided skillet over medium heat. Add the butter and olive oil to the hot skillet. When the butter is melted, add the garlic; cook, stirring often, until soft and fragrant. Add 1/2 cup of the pasta water, then reduce the heat to low.
  • When the pasta is ready, lift it out of the water and add it directly to the sauce; reserve the pasta water. Sprinkle the Parmesan over the pasta and stir to combine. Return the heat to medium, add the mascarpone, lemon zest and 3/4 teaspoon salt and toss well. Continue cooking until the pasta is al dente, another minute or two, adding pasta water as needed to thin the sauce.
  • Add the peas and lemon juice; toss well to combine. Add more pasta water as needed to reach the desired sauce consistency (you will most likely use about 1 1/2 cups pasta water in all).
  • Sprinkle with the pink pepper and additional Parmesan, if desired.
